Time is fast running out for Turnbull to win support

WHY has Malcolm Turnbull, who took over the leadership of the LNP with so much promise, fearlessness, strong will and successful business career, failed so miserably?

Why has he become such a weak, hesitant, waffling, indecisive person that has failed to galvanise the minds of voters?

Is it government policies or is it the man that has resulted in the miserable polling results?

With the ludicrous Labor policy of robbing retirees of their dividend credits, links with CFMEU and amalgamation with the maritime union that threaten firms.

Shorten's reputation of being untrustworthy and a proven hypocrite, his failure to turn his party members in for dual nationality infringements, all this and more, means Turnbull has all the ammunition to knock Shorten off his pedestal and yet still fails to leave a mark on Labor.

Obviously there is more to it, as the government policies are working in spite of Labor's attempts to stop them and all with only a one-seat majority.

Time is running out for Turnbull and he needs to organise a few focus groups to pinpoint his problem and get direction on future strategy, as his well worn "jobs and growth” mantra is not working or voters are not listening any more.

He needs to give the country a massive jolt that has overwhelming appeal to reawaken people's attention.

He must find the answer ASAP.
